Nigéria: É mesmo Goodluck, Jonathan!

Goodluck Jonathan is set for election as Nigeria's president, with almost double the vote of his main rival as the count nears completion.
Figures provided by regional officials suggest the incumbent - a Christian from the oil-producing Niger Delta - has enough votes to avoid a run-off.
The head of the African Union observer team said it had been Nigeria's best election for decades.
However, some results in individual states were suspiciously high.
Mr Jonathan was appointed to the presidency last year, upon the death of incumbent Umaru Yar'Adua, whom he had served as vice-president.
He staked his reputation on the election, repeatedly promising it would be free and fair.
Results so far put Mr Jonathan on track to become the country's first elected president from the Niger Delta.
